We have had a couple of rough weeks in the Gokey house. My father-in-law has been ill and he passed away on the 13th. His wife, children, grandchildren and great-grand child were with him when he passed. Only my brother-in-law John and I were unable to make it. The service was yesterday and it was very nice. They ran a dvd of photos that the family collected, played songs that the family picked out to remember him. What can I say about my father-in-law? Charming, funny, kind and caring aren’t good enough. I don’t think I have the words in my vocabulary. The obituary ran in The Macomb Daily and you can see it at http://www.macombdaily.com/stories/081508/obi_obits05.shtml. And memories are being shared with the family at http://www.bcfh.com.

So Sorry for your loss.
That funeral home is so close to me…my mother says that the people that own it are related to us…long lost cousins of some sort…Bagnasco is my father’s last name and my maiden name. small world!
Hope your husband is coping thru this difficult time..
